USB flash drives are portable, reliable, and have sizable storage capacities. They are ideal for the purpose of saving and transferring documents between home and school. The other options, such as DVD-ROM and CD-ROM, are not as portable and do not have large storage capacities. External hard drives are portable and have high storage capacities, but they are relatively more expensive and may be unnecessary for simply saving and transferring documents.
